Fourth Grade Field Trip to Cark Planetarium-Thursday, March 28th 2024

Please fill out this Google Form to give your student permission

Please pay the Quest Q1 office the following donation: (this donation just helps offset fees)

Adult chaperones: $8 *if chosen as a class chaperone.

Student planetarium: $3

FIELD DAY FUN: $2 *While you are paying these fees, please pay the field day donation too. 

I will be lottery-choosing 6 chaperones for the Field Trip. Please indicate on the Google form if interested.

We will be using the Frontrunner. Students will need to be dropped off and picked up at the Roy station by their guardians. There will NOT be transportation from Quest to or from the train station.

DROP OFF: Students should plan to arrive at the station no later than 8:00 AM.  THE TRAIN will pull out at 8:15am  THERE WILL NOT BE A TEACHER AT THE STATION BEFORE 7:45am TO TEND ANY CHILD.

PICK-UP: We will arrive back at the Roy station at 2:45 PM. STUDENTS MUST BE PICKED UP BETWEEN 2:45-3:00 pm. 

Please indicate on the Google form if your student will be needing a school lunch or home lunch. If you didn’t order a sack lunch from the school, send your child with a lunch that day that doesn’t need to be refrigerated. They will carry their own lunches. If they did order school lunch, it would be given to them that morning. 

Send your child with a small jacket, bags/backpack to carry their lunches, and a water bottle. No electronic devices (games/phones) are allowed on the field trip. They may bring something small to play with on the Frontrunner. For example, a deck of cards, a small pack of crayons/notebook, or a figurine/fidget toy. Nothing that will bounce away from them or cause a mess. No gum. Apply sunscreen beforehand and send some if your child may need more. We will be eating lunch outside.

Email your child’s teacher if you have any questions.

Thanks,

Fourth Grade Teachers
